The giveaway in this post is now closed. Click on my Main Page to see the current giveaway. Thanks!

I've got an organizing tip for you today and a giveaway, so make sure you go all the way to the bottom to throw your name into the hat...or is it a purse?

I can't believe I'm about to show you the inside of my closet...it could get ugly, girls.

This is what my purses look like on most days. No organization. They just end up on the floor of my closet. If it's a good day, they'll be piled on a shelf. I decided it was time for a better system.

That's where these come in. A shower curtain tension rod and some s-hook. Drill a bunch of holes in the tension rod and put an s-hook in each hole. Make sure you're using s-hooks that are at least 1.5".

Then wedge the tension rod somewhere in your closet. My rod wasn't quite long enough so I used a small stool to make up the difference.

Voila! I'm finally organized! Now I've got room for MORE PURSES!

Did you hear that I had another fabulous giveaway as a part of Moms Unite! Today our giveaway is being sponsered by Kim at A Touch of Stardust.

Kim designs and makes the most adorable purses and totes.

Love me a little toile! Her bags are fun and funky and she uses beautiful fabrics from designers like Amy Butler.

And could this birdie bag be any cuter! I really want one of these.

So what's the giveaway? The winner will get to choose any of the pleated bags in her shop!

Now you know the drill right? Go check out Kim shop, A Touch of Stardust. Then come back here and leave me a comment telling me which of her bags you just can't live without.

And then get yourself over to the The Nester's placebecause she has an awesome giveaway going on too.

My winner will be announced on Thursday when we start our next giveaway brought to you by:

I seriously don't know how to pick just one! Those purses are FANTASTIC... no, they're better than that, but I don't have the words to describe it. I finally decided on the Passion Vine Pleated Purse, but I have to say that it is only ONE of my FAVORITES!(can you tell that I like purses?)

Also, I really like your purse hanging idea. I use hat hooks in my closet, but your idea saves space and I think I'm going to be doing a little closet makeover in the next day or two!

I cleaned out and organized my entry way closets/purse storage today too! I really don't know what came over me- the organization bug! I'm addicted to your giveaways- I love the orange ones- orange floral or katie jump rope.By the way, I love the prints in the living room!

Oh my, what a smart cookie you are. I love th epurse rack. I need on of those. No one likes a bunch of purses on the floor in the closet. OH YES and I love love the purses...you have! Just BEAUTIFUL! :) Have a great week!!Oh and I am also doing a giveaway in 2 days so hurry to my blog and guess what the 5 pictures are...it is titledWhat is it...Bye!

I'm not usually one to get excited about purses, but these are extraordinary! I love SO many of them, and for my favorite it would be a tie between the sparrows pleated bag and the pink peony pleated bag.

Oh these are all really adorable. My favs are the Kleo Floral Tote and the Katie Jump Rope Pleated Bag but I also really like the top 2 you had pictured but I did not see them at her store. Thanks for the great giveaway.

Oh! Latte Damask for sure....I almost went with Morning Glory (my daughter has a dress in that fabric and we could have "matched", but that might have been a little too cute. ;-)) Thanks for the chance.

Oh how this Mom could use a new purse. With diapers, wipes, toys and other scary things usually hanging off of me and my purse, something cute would be such a treat. Thanks for the opportunity to hop in the game. :) If I won, I would pick the dewberry print.

Ok, when I WIN the amy butler xl patchwork does that also include you coming over to make me such a clever bag holder?????:)Thanks for an inspiring idea! and for your blog that makes me smile everyday!Suzanne

Wow! Well, lets see...I love the toile purse but I see that someone already snatched it up. I also love the Morning Glory and the Chocolate & Lime. They are sooooo adorable. Some of her totes would also make great "smaller" diaper bags. You know...for the quick...in and out jobs ;)

I am in love with the sparrows pleated bag. I am a scrapbooker and the bird is very popular right now. I also love the mocca wristlet. I favorited the site and will definitely be back to check them out!!!

Forest Clematis, for sure!My dad had a clematis vine planted in his yard. He's gone now and I've always wanted to plant one but we have nowhere for the vine to grow. I could carry him with me if I had this purse...Please pick me!!!

I HOPE I AM DOING THIS RIGHT. I AM NOT A BLOGGER YET BUT I AM A WANNA BE. I LOOK AT YOUR BLOG ALL THE TIME AND LOVE IT. I SAW THE GIVEAWAY TODAY AND THOUGHT I WOULD TRY IT. I REALLY LOVE THE SPARROW PURSE ON THE OTHER WEBSITE(THAT I WILL HAVE TO START LOOKING AT TOO!)YOUR DOING GREAT ON YOUR BLOG!

I love your solution, great thinking.I am trying to wipe the drool off my keyboeard after seeing all those amazing purses at "Stardust". If I could have one of each I would be in purse heaven. My favorites are Choc & Lime, Forest Clematis and Latte Damask (just to name a few).I hope I am the lucky lady who gets one of these wonderful purses.Carrie

They are absolutely B E A U T I F U L !I have been looking for a purse for about the last 3 years and cannot find one that I like and that suits my personality.I absolutely love the first one that you have shown on your blog.
